Senator Ted Cruz

And by the way, this is the same political idiocy that led Zelensky last fall to go and effectively do a campaign event with Kamala Harris in Pennsylvania and to come to the United States in the middle of the presidential campaign, to come to the United States and do a New York Times interview attacking Donald Trump a month out from the election. And you and I did a whole pot at the time.

What the hell is wrong with this guy? Is he just an idiot? Look, I don't know who's going to win the race. Both you and I thought Trump was going to win, but nobody knew for sure. At a minimum, Zelensky knew there was some real possibility that Trump was going to be the president. Did he think it made sense? Like what foreign leader comes?

By the way, I wouldn't have advocated Zelensky should come campaign for Trump either. He's the president of Ukraine. He ought to be focused on Ukraine and stay the hell out of our elections like like it was an idiotic idea.

Look, he thinks he's George Washington, he thinks he's Winston Churchill, he thinks he is larger than life, and everyone around him, and particularly Donald Trump, are just beneath him. And that arrogance and condescension

And to say either, Zelensky is a glorious hero defending liberty and everyone with morality will stand against him, against the worst scourge humanity has ever seen, Vladimir Putin. That's one view. I don't think that view is right. There is another view, which if you spend your time on Twitter, you could see as the sort of countervailing view. which is Zelensky is a corrupt, evil autocrat.

He's a Nazi. He's a terrible human being. He started the war against Russia. And Vladimir Putin is a misunderstood, kind soul who we just need to embrace because he's a giant teddy bear and we need to love. unsurprisingly, that view isn't right either.

And one of the things, look, that I love about doing a podcast, if you do a TV or radio interview, both you and I have done a ton of TV or radio interviews, if you've got five or six minutes to discuss an issue, You got to talk about it in a quick little soundbite. You got to talk about it in a sentence or two.
